About Anne Barge
Anne Barge is one of the most respected names in American couture bridal. Founded in Atlanta in 1999 by designer Anne Barge, the house has built its reputation on the precision of Southern couture craftsmanship, offering gowns recognized for their refined silhouettes, considered restraint, and the kind of quiet architectural confidence that has defined the house for more than two decades. Anne Barge gowns are regularly featured in Vogue, Martha Stewart Weddings, Brides, and Harper's Bazaar, and have dressed brides across some of the most editorially photographed weddings in the country.
The flagship Anne Barge collection is the house at its most considered and couture-led expression. It is known for timeless silhouettes executed with exacting fit, elegant lace work, silk-rich fabrications, and a level of construction that has earned the house comparison to European couture traditions. Anne Barge designs for the bride who wants a gown that will photograph as beautifully in a family archive in thirty years as it does on the wedding day, without trend or excess.
Ellie Belle is the exclusive Minnesota boutique for the Anne Barge flagship collection, available by private appointment in our Eden Prairie atelier. Every appointment is guided by a dedicated stylist, with the collection presented and styled to the bride.
